Memo to the Planning Commission/CU 96-20/V 96-10 <br />August 27, 1996 <br /> <br />2. There are special conditions, the shape of the parent lot, which is <br /> peculiar to this property. <br /> <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />o <br /> <br />Literal application of the Ordinance will deprive the applicant of <br />property rights enjoyed by other properties in the neighborhood. <br />Owners of similarly sized lets in this neighborhood would be able to do <br />what the applicant is proposing. <br /> <br />There are special circumstances or conditions that are not a <br />consequence of the applicant's action. The shape of the original parcel <br />is beyond the applicant's control. <br /> <br />The granting of this variance will not be injurious to or adversely <br />affect the health, safety or welfare of the residents. The granting of a <br />variance for relief of 97 square feet would not be injurious to the <br />residents. <br /> <br />Conditional Use Permit <br /> <br />Site plan <br /> <br />The site plan meets the lot coverage requirements and building and parking <br />setback requirements for the R3 zone. The conditional use permit for zero lot <br />line development is needed because the two units will share a common wall. <br /> <br />Parking and access <br /> <br />Parking and the driveways are not shown on the site plan. It appears from <br />the building elevations that the two units will have a shared driveway. <br />However, parking and access should be shown on the site plan. Two parking <br />spaces are required for each dwelling. <br /> <br />Landscaping <br /> <br />The property has existing vegetation that will be retained. Lot one has 2 <br />trees; lot two has two trees and a grove of pine trees. Both lots are sodded <br />and the sod that is removed during construction will be replaced. No <br />additional landscaping is proposed at this time. <br /> <br />Elevations <br /> <br />The front entrances and garages will be under the main hving areas. The <br />exterior finish on the lower half of~ the dwellings will be brick and upper half <br />will be vertical siding. <br /> <br />s:\planning\scottXcu96-20.doc <br /> <br /> <br />
